The ant did gaze for long, at the pretty crimson plant-
Impressed by Venus's beauty, it listened to her talk,
And even thought them pretty, the seven leaves upon...

To fall over my dreams, my prayers, the silence
Surrounding me with blankets of memories,
Lifting my thoughts from their wistful reveries,
Delicious darkness, so delicate, tempting me to see
Life is sometimes...

Can I, can I stay alive forever
Immortality is not my desire or a...

Wonderful Worthing Promenade Part 2Candy floss, seaside rock, smoothies, and flags sporting
Union Jacks
Replace the old traditions of striped deckchairs
And Kiss-Me-Quick hats.
Chipwicks for our salt and vinegar fries
And their pole-and-line freshly caught local Cod;
The Vintners Parrot: For thick sizzling...

Space-viewed landscapes of rust and paint
Showing mirrored continents imagined;
Worlds within worlds at every turn,
Outlines of Octopi on Oil slicked streets;
Every post and pole or stone a step:

Winners and LosersKenneth Cloke
historically outlines the widening and deepening
and merging and submerging

publicized/privatized ego/eco-politicians.
Earth's perennial health/pathology contests
lie between LeftYang domination
over-powering RightYin suppression;
Slowly at matriarchal pre-historic first,
then, now, much more quickly

Honest OnesHonest Ones
By Franklin Price
06/10/2020
What happened to the honest ones?
Ones who'd rather die than lie.

We Danced In the DownpourWe danced in the downpour
The rains falls
not hard, more of a drizzle
this late Winter night
leaning on the light post
across the street,
watching the light in your window,
glowing slats through mini blinds,
outlines of your silhouette,
damp steel seeping...

Recollections From the Golden Cree IiPast unconcerned hens that distractedly
Scratch
Under frowning protestations from the
Sheltered Lee;
Into the cloaked shadows lain across the
Cobbled courtyard,
Behind which squats the twisted form of
The old brooding, arthritic apple tree.
Past the neat little cow-byre
Hosed...

Its waters run clear and true
It then flows into the Prairie
Along untended Lincoln County lands.

I roam the hallways of this ramshackle fortress.
These old empty veins that used to carry life
Rusty nerves are dulled and mute
I walk a well worn path, softly.
Curtains always drawn

Sunshine On a Rainy DayI lie,
on my large comfort bed..
counting seconds,
syncing my heartbeat,
with the tick of the great white clock,
above my head.

Clouds have formed on my thoughts...
Fogs have scathed...

And then skipped merrily on her way.
The most precious thing...
